Joomla is a very popular content management system used by hundreds of thousands of people worldwide and this is one of the main reasons why many hackers often try to find a way to hack Joomla based websites. Listed below are simple, yet powerful methods and practices to secure and protect a Joomla based website running on a Linux VPS from being compromised:<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_66_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-transparent ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-667047923c66a\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"ez-toc-cssicon\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-667047923c66a\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/how-to-secure-joomla-websites\/#1-Keep-Joomla-up-to-date\" title=\"1.

Keep Joomla up to date<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Keep the Joomla installation including all installed components, modules and third-party extensions up to date by upgrading them whenever a new version comes out. This is probably the most important part of securing Joomla based websites. Many hackers exploit security vulnerabilities that have been identified in outdated versions of Joomla core files and extensions, that for example allows a hacker to upload files to a Joomla website, so keeping your install up to date is an easy way to prevent most hacking attempts.\u00a0Install and use only extensions from trusted sites that have a good reputation. Delete all themes, modules and extensions which you are not going to use.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-Change-admin-user-name\"><\/span>2. Change admin user name<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Another simple step that hardens a Joomla website significantly is to choose a username other than &#8216;administrator&#8217; or &#8216;admin&#8217; for the administration account, as brute force attacks will often try to break in by using these usernames.\u00a0Also, ensure the administration account has a very strong password.\u00a0If you do not need new users added from Joomla front-end, disable new user registration.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-Set-the-appropriate-permissions-on-Joomla-files\"><\/span>3.\u00a0Set the appropriate permissions on Joomla files<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Set the appropriate permissions on Joomla files and directories. Never use 777 permissions for a file or directory because having directories and files with 777 privileges is a huge security risk! All files should be set to 644 and directories should be set to 755.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-Password-protect-the-administrator-directory\"><\/span>4. Password protect the administrator directory<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The security of any Joomla website can be greatly improved if access to the administrator back-end area is restricted. It can be done by password-protecting the &#8216;administrator&#8217; directory of the Joomla-based website. To do this, follow the instructions in our tutorials on how to <a title=\"password protect directories with nginx\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/password-protecting-directories-with-nginx\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">password-protect directories with nginx<\/a> or <a title=\"password protect a directory using htaccess\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/blog\/password-protect-a-directory-using-htaccess\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">password-protect a directory using htaccess<\/a> on a <a title=\"Linux VPS Hosting\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/managed-vps-hosting.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">virtual server<\/a> with Apache running on it.\u00a0 DirectAdmin and cPanel control panels provide an easy way to password-protect a directory. You can learn more about directory <a href=\"http:\/\/site-helper.com\/misc.html#password\">password protection using DirectAdmin.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Of course, you don\u2019t have to secure Joomla websites, if you use one of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/joomla-hosting.html\">Joomla\u00a0VPS Hostin<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosehosting.com\/joomla-hosting.html\">g <\/a>services.
